- Abstract
Purpose: This study aimed to assess radiation dose distribution to cardiac subvolumes in left-sided breast cancer radiotherapy (LBCRT) and to clarify whether the mean heart dose (MHD) reliably reflects cardiac substructures exposure., Materials and Methods: Fifty women referred for adjuvant LBCRT were prospectively evaluated. All patients received 3D-conformal hypofractionated radiotherapy (40Gy delivered in 15 fractions of 2.67Gy±boost of 13.35Gy). Cardiac substructures were contoured using the F. Duane's cardiac atlas. Dose distribution to cardiac chambers, left main (LM), left anterior descending (LAD), left circumflex (LCx) and right coronary artery (RCA)) was assessed. Dosimetric associations were analysed., Results: The mean MHD was 3.08Gy (EQD2=3.67Gy). The mean Dmean/Dmax LAD was 11.45Gy (EQD2=13.64Gy)/29.5Gy (EQD2=35.15Gy). Low doses were delivered to LM, LCx, and RCA (Dmean≤1.3Gy). The left ventricle (LV) was the most exposed cardiac chamber with Dmean/Dmax of 4.78Gy/37Gy. The strongest correlation with MHD was found for Dmean LAD (r=0.81). For every 1Gy increase in MHD, Dmean LAD rose by 3.4Gy. However, the proportion of variance in Dmean LAD predictable from MHD was moderate (R
2 =0.65). For all other cardiac substructures, R2 values were<0.7., Conclusion: Our study showed high exposure of LAD and LV in LBCRT. With poor predictive value, MHD may underestimate doses to cardiac substructures. For optimal heart sparing radiotherapy, we recommend to consider LV and LAD as separate organ at risk., (Copyright © 2020 Société française de radiothérapie oncologique (SFRO).

- Abstract
In patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices CIEDs, including cardiac pacemakers (PM) and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD), radiotherapy (RT) could compromise CIED function. Managing radiotherapy patients with CIED, has been a great practical and procedural challenge in radiotherapy and requires a structured multidisciplinary approach. A consensus document is presented as a result of a multidisciplinary working group involving cardiac electrophysiologists, Radiation Oncologists and Medical physicists. It aims to propose recommendations on risk stratification, management approach before, during and after radiation treatment/course of patients with CIED.

- Abstract
Atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (AT/RT) represents a rare malignant embryonic tumor of infant and early childhood. Its prognosis remains dismal despite aggressive multimodal treatment. We report the case of a 24-year-old male who was diagnosed with left parietal AT/RT after total resection and who is still in good health and recurrence free 4 years after surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy., Competing Interests: None

- Abstract
Africa is the second most populous continent after Asia comprising 54 countries. Given the healthcare system deficiencies in Africa, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic was expected to be disastrous. The first case of COVID-19 on the continent was reported in Egypt on 14 February 2020. By 13 May, cases had been reported in all 54 countries. Several practice guidelines specific to radiation oncology departments have been published, including prioritisation criteria for postponing radiotherapy, continuation of treatment, hypofractionation or even omitting radiotherapy. The oncology community in Africa has suddenly needed to protect both patients and caregivers and to ensure continuity of essential clinical services despite several challenges. Considering equipment unavailability, lack of human resources and poor infrastructure, tailoring COVID-19 pandemic management to the African context seems mandatory and a unified approach to guideline development in this context is encouraged. In this article, we discuss contextual issues coming into play, highlighting steps to be taken by radiotherapy centres in Africa to mitigate fallouts from the current pandemic to ensure the safety of our patients and staff as well as the impact on future care., Competing Interests: The authors declare that they have no conflicts of interest., (© the authors; licensee ecancermedicalscience.)

- Abstract
Plants respond to insect oviposition by emission of oviposition-induced plant volatiles (OIPVs) which can recruit egg parasitoids of the attacking herbivore. To date, studies demonstrating egg parasitoid attraction to OIPVs have been carried out in tritrophic systems consisting of one species each of plant, herbivore host, and the associated egg parasitoid. Less attention has been given to plants experiencing multiple attacks by host and non-host herbivores that potentially could interfere with the recruitment of egg parasitoids as a result of modifications to the OIPV blend. Egg parasitoid attraction could also be influenced by the temporal dynamics of multiple infestations, when the same non-host herbivore damages different organs of the same plant species. In this scenario we investigated the responses of egg parasitoids to feeding and oviposition damage using a model system consisting of Vicia faba, the above-ground insect herbivore Nezara viridula, the above- and below-ground insect herbivore Sitona lineatus, and Trissolcus basalis, a natural enemy of N. viridula. We demonstrated that the non-host S. lineatus disrupts wasp attraction toward plant volatiles induced by the host N. viridula. Interestingly, V. faba damage inflicted by either adults (i.e., leaf-feeding) or larvae (i.e., root-feeding) of S. lineatus, had a similar disruptive effect on T. basalis host location, suggesting that a common interference mechanism might be involved. Neither naïve wasps or wasps with previous oviposition experience were attracted to plant volatiles induced by N. viridula when V. faba plants were concurrently infested with S. lineatus adults or larvae. Analysis of the volatile blends among healthy plants and above-ground treatments show significant differences in terms of whole volatile emissions. Our results demonstrate that induced plant responses caused by a non-host herbivore can disrupt the attraction of an egg parasitoid to a plant that is also infested with its hosts.
